Kelly Rowland: I’ve Recorded 45 Songs

Kelly Rowland is making progress on her untitled, fifth solo album. In fact, the singer tells ABC Radio that she’s recorded nearly 50 tracks so far for the follow-up to 2013’s Talk a Good Game.

“I’ve recorded 45 songs to be completely honest, the challenge for me right now is solidifying like exactly what sound that is, I have three different sounds on the table,” she says. “So I just want to know what that is and I feel like I have two albums…that’s not cool, I just need one.”

Last year, Rowland teased a bouncy song called “Dumb,” but is this the direction she’s heading in? Rowland reveals that sonically her project will stay close to her R&B roots.

“It’s definitely more R&B and to the core of even the dance music, it’s still soul and that’s the core of who I am, is my soul, and I always want that to come across,” she says

Rowland also promises to release new music next month, adding, “I’m actually gearing up for a video right now, actually in rehearsals for a video right now I’m excited about. There’s going to be a video.” She coyly adds that it will entail “much movement.”

While she continues working on the album, we will see Kelly on her BET reality-based show, titled Chasing Destiny, which premieres April 5 at 10 p.m. ET.
